Another vintage card in pink...




I made this for birthday wishes for a very good friend. I love vintage everything. I got to use the new vintage brads from SU!. Love them!! Also made some scrunchy crunchy flowers out of vellum and sponged the edges to add some colour. I used some vintage lace and little pearls on her nightdress for accents. I sponged all the edges to deepen the colour. Inside I used one of the pewter hardware pieces from SU! to hold the sentiment. Hope you like it and thanks for looking.
Edit: I found the FREE vintage image here on this site. It is just one of many sites to visit for wonderful images.

Newest member of the family has arrived...

Well, we finally found a little kitty that we fell in love with. Meet Phinnaeus A.K.A. Phinn. Although all the family members haven't embraced his name yet, I'm sure it will grow on him. He is adorable and very playful. Loves to run around and chase his little toy mice. Enjoy this little video.

Time flies....



I made this card for a belated birthday for my brother-in-law. I thought the theme of time would be good and broke out these clear stamps. I got to use some hardware with the new antique brads from SU! and a clasp from Tim Holtz Ideology collection. I also used one of the teenie tiny clips from SU!--so cute. I distressed the edges with vintage distress ink and used the crackle background stamp For cardstock, I used the new early espresso cardstock from SU! It's pretty neutral but I like it just the same.
